Q

Why the Change?

A

Research performed for over 100 years but used different
animal models and experimental design (magnitude,
direction and location of forces)
* Sheep
* Human necropsy
* Beagles
* Squirrel Monkeys
Overall, past studies showed lack of ‘cause and effect’.
i.e. Occlusal Trauma (OT) did not cause pocket formation or
lead to loss of connective tissue.

  • Recommendations still lacking regarding implant
    occlusion but include
  • Mutually protected occlusion with
  • Anterior guidance
  • Wide freedom in centric relation (decrease cuspal
    inclines)
  • Reduce occlusal overload (more implants, less
    cantilevers)
  • Close monitoring for parafunctional habits

  2. Recession
58
Q

Traumatic Occlusal Force(s) and
Abfraction
NO EVIDENCE that TOF causes

A

non-carious cervical
lesions (NCCLs). Most studies used finite element
analysis (not clinical)
NCCLs may result from abrasion, erosion or corrosion

59
Q

Recession

A

EVIDENCE from observational studies that Traumatic
Occlusal Force does NOT cause gingival recession

60
Q

Abfraction

A

No credible clinical evidence to support existence of
abfraction
Therefore there can be no evidence implicating
abfraction as cause of recession!
